  • Hey there, folks! Today, we're going to have a little fun experiment. Have you ever wondered if your porcelain tiles are as strong as they look? Well, let's put them to the test.
    We've got a few porcelain tiles here and we're going to test their strength. Now, I'm not suggesting you go and do this at home! This is just for the sake of science, right?
    Porcelain tiles are known for their durability and strength. But how strong is that really? We're about to find out!
    First up is this beautiful blue and white tile. It certainly looks sturdy, but can it take the weight? Let's find out. Now, hold on to it tightly... there we go! No cracks or chips - that's impressive!
    Next up, let's try this unique brown tile. It has a solid look to it. Let's give it a try. Alright, no breaks or cracks - it passed the test!
    And finally, let's check out this elegant grey tile. It seems like it could hold its own against gravity. Let's see... no damage at all - wow!
    So there you have it, folks! A little fun experiment with porcelain tiles to test their strength. Remember, these tests were just for fun and not meant for real-life application - always handle your tiles with care!

    Nice video tidy! Quick question, do you have any ideas how you might repair the corner of a porcelain tile that’s chipped off? Not bothered about a perfect colour match and I really don’t want to remove from middle and re-lay!

    Interesting test. It seems that the professional garden design industry are avoiding using porcelain due to the massive enviromental costs when they are made. A least they will break up nicely when we come to replace them!

    Hi Tidy Bricks,
    great test!
    One question: How does the base, thickness and material need to be for cars to drive on porcelain pavers?
    Thickness and traction for tiles is an important factor I like to look for. Thanks for the videos

    No, the difference is the cleaning cheap tiles stain easily. Indian made Italian porcelain is crap. buy the real deal vitripiazza made in Italy they grout easily, clean easily chip resistant edges and better designed. Don't be tempted with the cheap 3x2s you'll regret it
